'DRM' with SID music...
Hi!
I can remember some game-composers, that protected their music's from being ripped...
Which one was the best protected game music?
And, are there any tools that allow to 'protect' any $1000/$1003 tune? :)

At $1020 enter "Get outta here, damn ripper!!!". That's said to work fine. ;-) |

If you code (or have the sources of) a playerroutine you can easily shatter every subroutine or table around the memory of the c64 or weave graphics or demo/gamecode around it.
I guess this was done in the past.

Arkanoid and Master of the Lamps are two hard to rip tunes. Especially Master of the Lamps. The code is scattered all over the game.
Tools? That would be a decent ML-monitor, i.e one with the 'N' (New Locate) command. Gentlemen, start your scattering! :)

I remember ripping the Arkanoid music, it was a nightmare that lasted for 2 weeks or maybe even longer. In the end I didn't even manage to get it working 100% |

You can always hack siddump-functionality to VICE, though.. |

It's still not even 100% in HVSC, the digis in the first couple of seconds are played at the wrong pitch. Hardly noticeable, but still.
Other examples of hard to rip tunes:
Jeff's Crossbow.sid (from the Deus Ex Machina note): runs in the diskdrive RAM!
Dane's Tsunami tunes: The whole soundtrack is divided into 3 pieces (part 1 and 3 at $1000, part 2 at $9000, IIRC), so you have to time your blockcopy routines very precisely to get gapless output.
